Julie fell in love with photography as a young girl playing with her dad's 35mm camera. Her interest soon spread to videography as well. Friends and family asked her often to videotape their weddings. "You are really good at this. Have you ever thought of becoming a professional?" Was heard time and time again. And soon she did! She began by shooting for a large studio and was the company "Videographer of the Year" her very first year and was asked to serve as an instructor for new wedding videographers. Julie's passion for photography still burned strong and Julie is proud to say she is now both a professional videographer AND photographer! Julie has been married for over 25 years and has 2 daughters. Her oldest graduated college with a degree in marketing and her youngest hopes to pursue a career in teaching. Her free time is spent with family and pursuing her passion for all that brings out the artist in her.
Willie's beginnings in professional photography are a direct result of his marriage. A friend who happened to be a professional wedding photographer saw the photos taken by Willie on his honeymoon and was very impressed. He immediately invited Willie to shoot weddings with him. Willie then received more formal training at the Lincoln Institute in California. Since he began his career, Willie had shot for some of the largest and best known studios in the tri-state area.
Married for over 25 years, Willie is a father to 2 daughters, both of whom are teachers.
One of the highlights of Willie's career was serving as the photographer at the wedding of one time NY Yankee pitcher Ramiro Mendoza.
His free time is spent with his family and pursuing his fascination with all aspects of American and world history.
